Our Services
Knives
Over time, kitchen knives lose their edge, making food prep harder and more dangerous. At Johnny’s Knife Sharpening Service, I specialize in sharpening all types of kitchen knives—from everyday chef’s knives to paring and serrated blades. With professional precision, I restore the sharpness and balance that make cooking smoother, safer, and more enjoyable.
Scissors
Whether you’re cutting fabric, crafting, or handling everyday tasks, sharp scissors make all the difference. I offer expert sharpening for household scissors, sewing shears, beauty and hair salons, and specialty cutting tools, ensuring clean, effortless cuts and prolonging the life of your blades.
Clippers
Dull clippers can tug, pull, and damage hair or fur. I provide professional sharpening for hair clipper and grooming blades, restoring a smooth, sharp edge that delivers consistent, clean results. Each blade is cleaned, honed, and tested to meet high-performance standards for both personal and professional use.
Yard & Garden Tools
Sharp tools make all the difference when working outdoors. I provide expert sharpening for axes, hatchets, loppers, pruners, hedge shears, machetes, and shovels—restoring clean edges that improve safety and make every cut, dig, or chop more effective. Whether you’re trimming branches or breaking ground, your tools will be ready to work as hard as you do.
Lawn Equipment
Your lawn mower can’t do its job with dull blades. I professionally sharpen both standard and mulching mower blades to ensure a clean, even cut every time. Sharpened blades help your mower run more efficiently, extend the life of your equipment, and leave your lawn looking crisp and healthy.
Salon Shears
Whether you're a professional stylist or groomer, your shears are one of your most important tools—and we treat them with the care and accuracy they deserve. Our expert sharpening process maintains the integrity of the blade’s convex or beveled edge, ensuring a smooth, effortless cut every time.
